"We must be ready to dare all for our country. For history does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid. We must acquire proficiency in defense and display stamina in purpose." - President Eisenhower, First Inaugural Address

Cargolaw.com, a product of The Law Offices of Countryman and McDaniel is one of my frequent reads. Why? Because it is full of good stuff relating to maritime and transportation law and much, much more, including some absolutely amazing pictures of various shipping, transport and aviation disasters.

In addition, it is home to some awful headline puns and the occasional humor shot that causes me to spray coffee all over my keyboard.

For example, after viewing pictures of mishaps, I ran across the following picture of a sign, which may, in reality, be some tort defense lawyer's dream of the ultimate warning label. Well, except for the fine print.

Pay them a visit.

Okay, I know the sign thing has been on the internets for years, but there is always one new victim out there somewhere. Today it was me.
